It was a peaceful demonstration until a Newark police officer put a CBS2 photographer in a chokehold, handcuffed him, and put him in the back of a patrol car. Here's the story:

Mark Slavo puts it best:

While there are no doubt great officers out there – those who understand what the Constitution stands for and the importance of ensuring that the Rule of Law is protected – it is the bad apples, who act not as servants of the people, but rather, agents of tyranny, that have lead the majority of Americans to distrust law enforcement in general.

Senator Jim DeMint calls out Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner for playing "chicken little" in the debt ceiling debate in an attempt to force a quick agreement:

“There certainly would be disruption, but this is not a deadline that we should rush and make a bad deal,” DeMint said on “Fox News Sunday.” “Secretary Geithner has been irresponsible. He’s playing Chicken Little here. The fact is that we will pay our debts if it’s the last dollar we have. … We’re not going to default.”

The truth is, the United States collects enough revenue to keep paying the interest on the national debt, and therefore can avoid a default even without raising the debt ceiling.

What's more important is not whether a deal is reached quickly, but what the terms are of such an agreement. DeMint, along with Senators Mike Lee and Rand Paul, says it's time to "Cut, Cap, and Balance."

While I'm sure more resources will be available soon, I decided to share a flyer we will be using to promote our YAL Chapter (Click thumbnail on right).

Feel free to edit this to use for your own chapter. You can download the template in a compressed .psd file by clicking here.

Alternatively, you can add customized type (or handwriting) to the image below, which has my school information removed.

 Thanks to Jeremy Henchcliffe for his help on the flyer.
